Anna Meares is so awesome. I would be delighted to have thighs as big as hers if it meant I was as strong as she was.If more girls and women thought about their bodies in terms of what they could do, rather than how they looked, I reckon there would be a lot less insecurity and unhappiness in the world.

But I guess back OT.Buy a roadie! They are so much more fun to ride on the bitumen. And they look much sexier. And if you are on a roadie and Matt is on a MTB, then he will have to work just a bit harder than you to maintain the same speed. Win all round....Except he might cheat and take some shortcuts you won't be able to

You know I think he might just be up for some cheating. But I am liking the idea of a road bike more and more. Something makes me think that we will get our better specced MTB for xmas, and next year N + 1 will be a roadie. I might need to go back to work to help pay for the toys.

You sure? Lesson is clear Marnie, stay off the boards
